If the bike doesn't sell overnight then sometime after 2pm as that's when the owner will be in. Checked my insurance and after canceling my current policy and starting a new multi-bike policy it's only going to be an extra £13 per month and thats with the canelation fee and the money I still owe them so not bad overall.

Hopefully the bike checks out cause I don't fancy using the SV in the all the snow and ice. I like it too much.

I don't fancy riding any bike in all the snow and ice. Been there, done that, threw the tee shirt away. Does Killingworth not have a bus stop?.

Yes but to get to Team Valley for 8am using the bus will take over an hour and that's without the bad weather. Plus the CB won't just be for winter, it will also be a back up in case the SV refuses to start, which it has a few times.

CB500. bloated bouncy slow but crash well. watch out it's not been a school bike.

how far are you going?

I'm not after a fun bike, it will just be my run about for winter and as a back up. The SV is for most of year and days out.

The bike has 50,000 miles and going from the pictures no cosmetic damage so either it's not been dropped or it's been resprayed or plastics replaced. I'll know better when I see it.

What do you mean how far am I going?

The bike is in Stanley, Durham and I wouldn't mind extra pairs of eyes for the viewing. Can go for something to eat and a ride out after.

Need to know who's coming so I can arrange a time and place to meet and arrange with the seller when I will be there so they're in.
